What Are Mo2C Evaporation Materials And Nanomaterials?

What is Molybdenum Carbide?

Molybdenum Carbide
_Mo2C
CAS Number: 12069-89-5
Melting Point: 2692℃
Crystal Structure: Hexagonal
Colour: Black

Molybdenum carbide (_Mo2C) crystallises in a hexagonal lattice and also in a cubic face‐centred arrangement. It exhibits a high melting point, considerable hardness, stable thermal and mechanical properties and notable corrosion resistance.

What Applications Exist for Molybdenum Carbide?

Molybdenum carbide powder can be used as a coating material (Molybdenum Carbide (Mo2C) Evaporation Materials). It is also used as an additive in formulations for high-temperature, wear-resistant and chemically stable applications. Molybdenum carbide is generally applied as a coating due to its high hardness, wear resistance and thermal stability. It may be incorporated into Cermet to improve performance, and is frequently blended with alloys to enhance phase stability.

Molybdenum carbide exhibits catalytic activity in certain chemical reactions, including the dehydrogenation of hydrocarbons, hydrogenolysis and isomerisation. Its catalytic performance is comparable to that of platinum and iridium, and it is sometimes designated as a quasi-platinum catalyst.

The lower cost compared with precious metals and its high resistance to sulphur poisoning lead to a broad scope of applications in catalysis. When employed as a catalyst, molybdenum carbide requires a high specific surface area. Mikromolybdenum Carbide is a suitable option for such cases.
